Has anyone heard of the new Bratz Dolls, or the movie that came out soon after? Tell me that is not the most retarded thing you have ever heard? Why can't they come up with their own ideas, and stop ripping off Disney?! |

Aack! I know! Everytime I heard the word "Genie" coming from my television, I turned around with a beaming smile on my face. Then found out it was them D=<
I hate Bratz. They make five-year-olds start acting like fifteen-year-olds. I hate modern toys! _________________ You know you want to Legendary Genie Embrace me... |

Yeah. I used to like them when I was little, but the Genie rip-off was an unforgivable sin. And even worse, that rediculous theme song/comertial is stuck in my head. |

Pardonnez moi? I was not aware that Disney invented genies.
I think they're kinda cute. To be honest, Bratz and genies have crossed paths in my mind more than once - and for good reason.
I'll never, ever watch the movie if I can help it, though. The Bratz cartoon series is one of the more annoying things I've had the misfortune to stumble upon. _________________

No they didn't but i think we can all agree that since it can be easily related it does give it a bit of an extra boost _________________ -Gazelle

I know Disney didn't invent genies, but let's face it, for most people, especially little kids, when you think of genies, you think of Aladdin. Just like when you think of fairy tales, you think of Disney's version, and not the thousands of other versions that may have come before it. |

Well, I guess it depends on what you're into. For me, Aladdin was my first experience with genies, so when I hear that word, I automatcally think of Disney's version. Am I the only one who feels this way? |

no if you read above we're mainly making the same points but replying at the same time _________________ -Gazelle

Quite possibly. Trying to say Bratz ripped off Disney because Disney made a movie that involved a genie is like trying to say Harry Potter ripped off the story of King Arthur because it involved a wizard. _________________

I understand where your coming from, but with Harry Potter,Harry isn't the only established wizard in the movie world, so seeing wizards in other places doesn't seem like a rip. But with Aladdin, as I said before, when you hear the word genie, a lot of ppl think of Aladdin's genie, whereas with HP I can think of multiple wizards and not just him. |
